Single women have a dreadful propensity for being poor. Which is one very strong argument in favor of matrimony (R B Quotes)
No man will be a sailor who has contrivance enough to get himself into a jail; for being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned. A man in a jail has more room, better food, and commonly better company (R B Quotes)

Who is more to be pitied, a writer bound and gagged by policemen or one living in perfect freedom who has nothing more to say? (R B Quotes)
Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when, whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees (R B Quotes)
It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace (R B Quotes)
O God, that men should put an enemy in their mouths to steal away their brains! That we should, with joy, pleasance, revel, and applause, transform ourselves into beasts! (R B Quotes)
Tis in ourselves that we are thus or thus. Our bodies are our gardens to which our wills are gardeners (R B Quotes)
Society is a republic. When an individual tries to lift themselves above others, they are dragged down by the mass, either by ridicule or slander (R B Quotes)
How quickly nature falls into revolt when gold becomes her object! For this the foolish over careful fathers have broke their sleep with thoughts, their brains with care, their bones with industry (R B Quotes)
The most shocking fact about war is that its victims and its instruments are individual human beings, and that these individual beings are condemned by the monstrous conventions of politics to murder or be murdered in quarrels not their own (R B Quotes)
Perseverance... Keeps honor bright: to have done, is to hang quite out of fashion, like a rusty nail in monumental mockery (R B Quotes)
But let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls (R B Quotes)
I know I'm not a self-indulgent idiot; I also know I'm not the second coming of Deepak Chopra. If I had believed either of those, or both, as some people do when they get famous, that's when the mental illness arrives (R B Quotes)
O Romeo, romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name. Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love and I'll no longer be a Capulet (R B Quotes)
We can be thankful to a friend for a few acres, or a little money; and yet for the freedom and command of the whole Earth, and for the great benefits of our being, our life, health, and reason, we look upon ourselves as under no obligation (R B Quotes)
I never come back home with the same moral character I went out with; something or other becomes unsettled where I had achieved internal peace; some one or other of the things I had put to flight reappears on the scene (R B Quotes)
Our body is a machine for living. It is organized for that, it is its nature. Let life go on in it unhindered and let it defend itself (R B Quotes)
Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment (R B Quotes)
If it is surely the means to the highest end we know, can any work be humble or disgusting? Will it not rather be elevating as a ladder, the means by which we are translated? (R B Quotes)
I had rather be a toad and live upon the vapor of a dungeon than keep a corner in the thing I love for others' uses (R B Quotes)
The poor soul sat sighing by a sycamore tree, sing all a green willow: Her hand on her bosom, her head on her knee, sing willow, willow, willow (R B Quotes)
O, reason not the need! Our basest beggars Are in the poorest things superfluous; allow not nature more than nature needs, man's life is cheap as beast's (R B Quotes)
The society of dead authors has this advantage over that of the living: they never flatter us to our faces, nor slander us behind our backs, nor intrude upon our privacy, nor quit their shelves until we take them down (R B Quotes)
I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam: I looked into the soul of another boy (R B Quotes)
Mental fight means thinking against the current, not with it. It is our business to puncture gas bags and discover the seeds of truth (R B Quotes)
There are neither good nor bad subjects. From the point of view of pure art, you could almost establish it as an axiom that the subject is irrelevant, style itself being an absolute manner of seeing things (R B Quotes)
The sea - this truth must be confessed - has no generosity. No display of manly qualities - courage, hardihood, endurance, faithfulness - has ever been known to touch its irresponsible consciousness of power (R B Quotes)
